Team News: Chris Erksine starts for Partick Thistle

By Daniel Lewis, Senior Reporter | 21 January 2014

Partick Thistle name Chris Erksine in their starting lineup for tonight's clash against St Johnstone, after his return to the club on loan.

Chris Erksine, who returned to former club Partick Thistle on loan from Dundee United earlier this week, starts for the Jags against St Johnstone.

Stuart Bannigan and Aaron Taylor-Sinclair miss out due to suspension as the hosts look to pick up their first home victory of the season.

The Saints, who themselves have only picked up one victory away from home in the league this season, are without the suspended Alan Mannus, though Steven Anderson starts, having had his red card rescinded in the week.
